The EU Sample Clauses

The EU. The distribution of competences across the EU and its Member States was, as we alluded to supra, uncertain at the moment the Uruguay Round was launched. It was clarified at the end of the round, when the EU jointly requested an opinion from the European Court of Justice (ECJ) on this matter. Although sitting in the driver’s seat, and act- ing as if it was fully competent, throughout the round the EU agent, the Commission, was on a tight leash: its negotiating positions were not only ex ante decided but also ex post scrutinized by the EU Member States. De facto, however, this does not seem to have been a major impediment.92 Moreover, a positive external effect stemmed from the intra-EU distribution of competences: the common agent, the Commission, had to report back to 12 Member States with divergent interests. The EU kept very compre- hensive and detailed records of each and every discussion, participated in practically all meetings, and emerged as a key player in the negotiations.

The EU. On 1 May 2004, the new EU Regulation on Technology Transfer Agreements en- tered into force.96 This Regulation is the result of the EU’s overhauling and “mod- ernizing” its entire enforcement system as well as reconsidering its policies vis- a`-vis horizontal and vertical cooperation, and, in particular, its policy vis-a`-vis licensing agreements.97 By a “more economic approach” the Regulation clearly 91 See Xxx, Newberg, U.S. Enforcement Approaches to the Antitrust-Intellectual Property Interface, in Anderson, Gallini, at 343, 347 et seq. 92 See Section 5.2. 93 OECD, Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises – Revision 2000–, Paris 2000, at 26 (text), 53 et seq.

See also above, under Section 3 of this Chapter. 97 See European Commission, Commission Evaluation Report of 20.12.2001 on the Transfer of Technology Block Exemption Regulation No. 240/96 (Technology Transfer Agreements under Article 81) (COM(2001) 786 final).

A broadly defined (automatic) block exemption is granted, for competing undertakings, where the combined market share of the un- dertakings party to an agreement does not exceed 20% of the affected relevant tech- nology and product market. For non-competing undertakings, the automatic block exemption is granted where the market share of each of the parties to the agree- ment does not exceed 30% of the affected relevant technology and product mar- ket.98 Above these market shares even horizontal agreements would still benefit from a broad rule of reason analysis of each individual case,99 the more economic approach being oriented toward an efficiency test simi...

  • Compliance with Code Section 409A The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or are exempt from Section 409A of the Code and this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in a manner that establishes an exemption from (or compliance with) the requirements of Code Section 409A. Any terms of this Agreement that are undefined or ambiguous shall be interpreted in a manner that complies with Code Section 409A to the extent necessary to comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if, on the date of termination, the Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Code Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Executive) until the date that is the first business day of the seventh month following the date of termination (or the earliest date as is permitted under Code Section 409A), and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to the Executive hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Code Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Code Section 409A. In the event that payments under this Agreement are deferred pursuant to this Section in order to prevent any accelerated tax or additional tax under Code Section 409A, then such payments shall be paid at the time specified under this Section without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent required by Code Section 409A, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean separation from service. Each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.
